Title:
ENERGY ABSORBER INSTALLING STRUCTURE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3473136
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To provide an energy absorber installing structure by which stable energy absorbing performance of an energy absorber is not impaired at collision time of a vehicle or the like and which does not discharge a broken piece to a free space and does not pollute an environment.
CONSTITUTION: A hollow vessel 11 is arranged on an upper installing member 2, and an intermediate holding member 6 is arranged in an end part of a connecting member 12. The hollow vessel 11 is fitted to an outside surface of an energy absorber 1, and forms a closed space 16 between it and the energy absorber 1. The intermediate holding member 6 is sufficiently isolated from a taper part of the energy absorber 1, and is fitted in an inside hole of the energy absorber, and forms a closed space 15 between it and the energy absorber 1. Since a broken piece of the energy absorber generated at collision time is housed in the closed space 16, a broken piece 9 is not scattered in a free space, and discharge of an environment polluting substance is prevented. Since a broken piece 10 is also housed in the closed space 15, the broken piece 10 is not forcedly pressed in a fitting clearance between the intermediate holding member 6 and the energy absorber 1.
